Forgal
"I've done a lot of things wrong in my life. But this one thing, I'm gonna do right. I won't let you have them!”
"There was so much left that I wanted to see... I can't let you hurt them. I won’t!”
"You may win the battle, dragon, but you will never defeat our spirit! I am Forgal, son of Kern. My father was the last Dolyak Shaman! I am a Warmaster of the Vigil! You will never make me kneel!"
Tonn
"I've been looking forward to meeting you, Commander. I told Trahearne I needed the big guns for this mission, and here you are. Heh heh. Welcome to the party."
Apatia
Hekja
"And Commander, I'd be honored if you'd call me "Apatia.”"
"I'm watching your back, but keep your eyes open: your front needs protection, too."
Kekt
Arda
"Tomb-crawling! Dungeon-running! Ah, that's the good life. … Adventure! Experimentation! Ancient tombs, rich with...er, exploration.”
"I heard the Pact needed pilots and…well, I've always wanted to slay a dragon."
Zott
"It's hard to lose someone. I used to be much more lighthearted, but then I lost—never mind. The point is I know it can hurt, but also that you can't let it stop you. We have to keep going.”
"No! That's Elli's ship! We can't leave her to die! To hell with our orders, and to hell with the mission! Elli needs me. I won't abandon her!"
Tegwen
Beirne
"I know. Just...leave it to me. You and the commander withdraw. I'll signal the ghostfire. ... For once, Carys, just do what I say. Go!”
“I’ve had her since she was a pup, about eight years now. My family's long gone, friends come and go, and a lot of fellow soldier have fallen, but Allie and I are inseparable.”
...
Allie whines softly. She paws the ground when she's not sniffing the air.
Grechen
"You're an inspiration, Commander. Many believe that if we can defeat Zhaitan, Jormag will be next. Your deeds bring great hope to the norn."
Belinda
"When darkness overwhelms you, I'll rend your enemies before they can harm you."
the Master of Peace
"I am honored to meet you all. In the face of such barbarity, the cause of peace requires formidable defenders."
Wynne
"I don't understand how anyone can be indifferent to our own kind. We are so few and so fragile. Trying too hard to be noble...and good. We must rely on and support one another. No matter what."
Eir
"Come on! Let's give the skaalds something to sing about!"
Trahearne
"It's certainly disquieting. If it was the price to defeat Mordremoth, however, I pay it gladly. That makes this an unusual meeting, though. What troubles you? … I can think of none better to carry Caladbolg in my stead. But, I expect that sentiment alone won't suffice. … You know, Commander, I have sometimes wondered at the outcome of a sparring match. Shall we?"
Demmi
"Oh... He's here… Master Tybalt...you found me…"
Vlast
"My sister, the mantle is heavy—at times, too heavy to bear. But Mother believed, so we must endure. … Your Champion...fills me with curiosity. Perhaps because my own never appeared."
The Commander.
… sometimes you wonder if you should’ve stayed dead.
